One wireless earphone does not work

There are times when only one of the speakers does not work. This does not mean that the device is broken. It is necessary to determine the cause of this phenomenon.

Why does one wireless earphone not work

There are several reasons why one of the headphones may not work. Among them:

1. The speaker is clogged with gray.
2. The item needed for power is not positioned correctly.
3. The headset is not positioned correctly.
4. Errors in the connection process.
5. Incorrect settings on the sound source.
6. The bluetooth capsule is not located correctly.

All breakdowns are determined and corrected individually.

How to determine the cause

The reasons can be determined as follows:

1. Check the device, if it is clogged with sulfur, you will see it. They should be cleaned and hygiene rules should be followed in the future. But you can buy special headphones that are protected from sulfur.
2. It is necessary to check the battery. Bluetooth headphones work wirelessly, but require a battery. It is necessary to verify the correct location of the battery, namely the polarity.
3. If the headset is not positioned correctly, try reading the instructions for use. Some headphones will only work if you put them on your neck or arm (it all depends on the individual parameters of the antenna).
4. When using the headset for the first time, you need to look for the device in the list of active on the phone. But many headsets have similar names, so the sludge is easily confused with those that were previously connected. Erase the phone’s memory or use the search.
5. If the wrong settings are set, they should be corrected. Most often, the default speaker is the phone’s speaker, not the headphone. It is necessary to change this parameter in the settings. But if the sound does not reach the speakers of the phone, then the reason is different.

Attention! Be sure to properly position the device in your ears. The speakers have a very narrow focus. Perhaps the device itself is all right, but it is located at the wrong angle and the walls of the ear canal block the path of sounds.

How to fix the problem

Depending on the breakdown, you can repair a bluetooth device, either at home or by contacting a service center. Minor damage and defects can be repaired with your own hands.

Gray clogging

You must do the following:

1. Take a needle.
2. We get a dirty filter.
3. We check it for sulfur.
4. Carefully clean the speaker, taking care not to damage the latter.
5. We put a new filter.
6. We connect the headphones and check the work.

Incorrectly placed battery

The problem here is polarity. Check the placement of + and -. For devices 11 mm + outward, and inward. For 9 and 6 mm the opposite is true. If, after inserting the battery, you hear a slight noise from the speaker, it means that you did everything right.

Headset misplaced

Some headphones work only on the neck, and some only on the hand. It all depends on the individual characteristics of the antenna. Read the instructions to understand how to use the device.

The headset was not connected properly

If your phone has a lot of similar names, try to clear the memory. Then there will be only one that we need. Another good idea is to rename the name of the device you are using.

Incorrect settings

By default, many phones transmit audio signals through the speaker rather than through the headphones. You must do the following:

1. Go to the phone settings.
2. Find the name Sound or Sound Source (may be slightly different, depending on the model).
3. Select headphones as source.

The earphone is misplaced in the ear

Everything is simple here. Place the speaker so that you can hear it clearly.

Other problems

But there are also breakdowns, because of which you have to contact the service center:

1. Moisture has entered the device. This will damage the contacts.
2. The device fell from a great height.
3. You accidentally crushed the speaker.
4. The contacts have oxidized (the battery has been inside for a long time, it must be removed if you are not using headphones).
5. If you bend the loop of the headset, there is a risk of breakage of the winding induction wires.

You can also solve these problems yourself if you know how to use a soldering iron and know the internal structure of the headphones.
